I am certainly no paleontologist, but I thought that the giant asteroid was one of many theories, has something changed recently to make this a fact?

No. The K/T event, also known as “the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs” (re: Chicxulub) is still classified as a ‘theory’, as there are many unexplained things that occurred despite that event that does not allow it to be specifically defined as “fact” as of yet.

Do a quick search on such matters and you will quickly find that many inconsistencies still exist which puzzle scientists to this day.

Yeah, I’m with you.

Has this whole asteroid theory been definitively proven?
